Insert video question

Hi.
I have inserted video no problem, and am now trying to get
the first frame to show an image I made (the current first frame is
black on pageload, which looks bad). Can anyone tell me how I might
do this?
Thanks!

DW cannot add a Poster Frame to your video. You need to bring
your project
into Flash for this.

Inserting Videos Without MS Word In Acrobat Pro 9 Extended

I've been experimenting with inserting videos as native content using Acrobat Pro 9 Extended. For my ebook publishing this is such an ideal situation, but I don't use MS Word, and there doesn't seem to be any real facility in Acrobat 9 to do simple formatting of the video object (like center it, for example.)
I do have an older version of Word (2000) but it doesn't have the menus listed that seem to inserted into newer versions.
Does anyone know what version of Word is required for this functionality?
Furthermore, is there another way to do this using some other program? I use OpenOffice typically, but could try others if need be.

Inserting video clip and have both audios at once

Hi everyone, hopefully somone can help answer my question. My friend has a video blog and the person who used to do all of his technical stuff is no longer with him, so he's trying to figure it all out, and I figured I'd try to help him.
In iMovie, does anyone know how to insert a video clip into the main video clip and have the inserted video being shown on the screen but the audio of both videos playing at the same time, with no break in continuity of the main video's audio? Then, how to transition from the inserted video with both audios playing at the same time back to just the main video, again with no breaks in audio continuity? I know it's possible on FinalCut Pro, because that is what his tech person used, but for some reason that program freezes my friend's computer, so he's stuck with iMovie for now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks for your reply devbear11. You ALMOST got what I was asking for. I'm sorry if my wording is confusing, lol. Everything you said is great, EXCEPT that I want to KEEP the audio on the inserted video in ADDITION to the audio on the original clip. So to break it down....
- Main video clip is playing.
- Segue into the inserted video clip. Have the screen be showing the inserted video clip and have it be playing it's own audio, WITHOUT interrupting the audio of the original/main video.
- Inserted video clip plays on the screen and you hear both the audio of the inserted video clip in addition to whatever my friend is saying on the main audio....To give you an example, my friend blogs about figure skating. So he will be discussing a competition and the screen is showing him at his desk talking about the different skaters. While he is discussing a certain skater, he may input a clip of their performance and you will see and hear them skating to their music, but still be able to hear him discussing it uninterrupted in the background.
- Once the inserted clip ends, the video switches back to my friend at his desk, with his commentary uninterrupted.
Am I making sense? lol

Inserting video into templates

I am extremely new to AE. I have CS6 and am trying to learn it on my own... but it's very complicated.
I have a template I am working with that I want to insert video clips into. The template has jpegs that say "insert photo or video here". How do I swap the jpeg with the video clip without losing the keyframes and effects? I'm not well-versed enough to just re-do them all. I am using the templates to learn the program but to also build a few videos for the non-profit I work for.
Another thought I had was if it was possible to copy all the attributes/effects/keyframes from one media piece to another. So if I were to add the video clip to the composition and copy the attributes from the template photo to the video clip I just added and then make the template photo invisible. But I haven't been able to figure that out. :/
Thanks!

Welcome to the world of After Effects! As you've noticed, it can be pretty complicated. I highly recommend that you start here. That is a set of resources specifically curated to help people new to AE get started off on the right foot.
To your question, this page in the AE help has what you need. It says to select the layer you want to replace in the Timeline panel then Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac OS) your new footage item from the Project panel onto the selected layer in the Timeline panel.

Can I insert pretest questions as knowledge checks between content slides and before a graded quiz without affecting the scoring of the graded quiz? Help documentation states that they should be used before a course begins.

Can I insert pretest questions as knowledge checks between content slides and before a graded quiz without affecting the scoring of the graded quiz? Help documentation states that they should be used before a course begins.
If I use both pretest questions and graded questions, can I also include remedial with return to quiz for both?

Sorry, but I gave two workarounds: my preference is custom question slides, but you can also have questions slides where you do not add the score to the Total score. They will not be reported to the LMS and can act as Knowledge slides. Only some quizzing system variables can count all question slides, including the Knowledge slides, but the core variables (score, maximum score, percentage) will be correct. Here some links to my blog, that could help you:
System variables in Captivate 8 - Captivate blog
Intermediate Score Slides - Captivate blog
That each SCORM module can have only one quiz is a SCORM requirement, not a a Captivate specific feature. Camtasia is bit difficult to compare, it is not a fully blown authoring tool although the best video screen capture tool around (video is non interactive by definition). I don't use Storyline, but cannot imagine that they shouldn't create SCORM-compliant files.

Inserting a question in to an existing quiz

Hi,
We're using version 6.1 of Presenter in PowerPoint 2000 and
2003. We're trying to insert a question in to the middle of an
existing quiz. When I add a question in the quiz manager the newly
inserted question overwrites one of my my existing question
(slides), followed by a friendly error message dialog stating an
unexpected error occured. The question never shows up in the quiz
manager, just one of my existing questions gets splatted.
Looks like there's some sort of corruption occuring in the
quiz that I can't fix without rewriting the entire quiz.
Does anyone know how to work around this problem?
Thanks in advance
Phil

I fixed this problem by doing two things. Firstly I deleted
the summary slide at the end of the quiz. This stopped the error
dialog appearing, but the new slides I was trying to insert were
still overwriting an existing question. I then deleted the
questions that were being overwritten, and all subsequent inserted
questions worked correctly. Seems like something got corrupted in
the question slide.
The quiz result summary page gets regenerated so there's no
problem with deleting it if things get corrupted behind the
scenes.

How can I get an inserted video (FLV) in Presenter 7 to stay on the screen once it has finished pla

How can I get an inserted video (FLV) in Presenter 7 to stay on the screen once it has finished playing? Right now it disappears once it is done. I'd like it to remain on the screen, or loop if possible, until the user manually moves the presentation forward.

Hi,
You may set the slide setting as 'Advance by user'.
So,
a. Insert flv on a slide.
b. On presenter ribbon goto Slide Manager .
c. Select the slide on which flv is inserted and set Advance by user 'Yes'
Hope this solves your purpose.
Thanks,
Alpi

How to disable the FULL SCREEN option in the 'Insert Video and Audio' option

Hi,
I've been inserting some MP3's and using an image for pupils to click on to play the sound, the images are 100 pixels by 100 pixels.
The only issue is that I have the grey rectangle 'Full Screen' box over the picture. This is ideal when I put videos on but not necessary when you have just an MP3. Also I've noticed that the 'Styles' option is greyed out and due to that I can't change the
colour of the play button.
I've been inserting MP3's direct from my PC hard drive to the webpage.
Any help'd be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to disable the “Full Screen” button and make other customization when there is an audio file in the page.
By default, when we insert an audio/video file into page via “Insert Video and Audio” button in the ribbon, an OOTB Media Web Part will be added into the page contains
the file you added, the “Full Screen” button is a part of this Media Web Part.
In consideration of you might have other requirements on designing the style, I would suggest you create a custom Media Web Part instead which will enable you customize
the style as you want.
About creating a custom Media Web Part, you can use the <audio> tag:

Can I Trick Presenter to allow me to Insert Video By Using Coding ?

I am currently evaluating Abobe Presenter 7.0.7.   It has the tools to allow me to make by presentations, but the major limitation for me is the fact that I must manually insert video by using the "Adobe Presenter" toolbar.   I need a means of automating the process of insert the video into the power point slides without doing it by hand using the "Adobe Presenter" toolbar.   I am currently using flv files. Can anyone help ??
This is what I have noticed so far:
1)     Inorder to publish the presentation, there is a folder created with the same name as your power point presentation. Within that folder is a folder called "Assets".   Inside this folder you will file various flv files names like "v20110123_031_272_1_24357".   The original flv filename is "v20110123_031.flv".    I believe this is where the video file is placed when I use the "Adobe Presenter" insert video tool.
2)     I also noticed that the power point slide has an object called "Shockwave Flash Object", and when I select this and display the "Properties" window, I see the following that seems important: a) Embed Movie = True, b) Loop = False, and c) MovieData = file path of video
3)     I used the "more controls" toolbar that is part of power point and selected "Shockwave Flash Object" and scaled in a box on one of my slides.   I changed all of the properties to what I indicated in #2 above. The "MovieData" file path was change to the correct path I the "Adobe Presenter" insert video did, but I change the flv file name and duration to the correct side.   I made a test case and insert the video in another presentation and copied it, but I made sure the pathname is correct for my test.
3)     I am able to publish without any errors, the the inserted flv does play.   I assure its not working correctly.
Does anyone know what I can try to get something like this to work (without using the "Adobe Presenter" invert video) because I am abvle to write MS VBA Code to generate everything else.
All my power point slides are generated by using MS VBA code completely because I have many of these to do each week for over 18 weeks.
I would appreciate any help or suggestions of other tools that I can use.
I believe Captivate also has this issue where I have to do this manually.
Thank You,
G

I don't really know too much about AutoIt Tool.   This is what I tried:
1)     I used MS Access VBA Code to open my power point slides and use the SendKeys to open various menu in the power point slides.   I do see the menu called "Adobe Presenter".
So I tried using the SendKeys "%{P}", True    which sends out the command Alt+P which is suppose to open the "Adobe Presenter" drop down menu.   It didn't do that but open the "View" Menu and select the "Header and Footer" menu.
So I tried using the SendKeys "%{I}", True   which sends out the command Alt+I which is suppose to open the "Insert" menu drop down and it works.   For some reason it didn't work for the "Adobe Presenter" menu.
2)     When I just open power point and type Alt+P, it does open the "Adobe Presenter" drop down menu.
Any idea ??     Do you think the AutoIt may work better for me ???
Thank You,
G

Unable to publish projects with inserted video - error message The Flash video can not be loaded

I've created a project in Captivate 6 with two slides that have inserted videos in them
Both the videos were created in Captivate 6 by publishing those projects as mp4 videos
They play fine in the previews but when publishing I get the error saying the Flash video can not be loaded for both of those slides and in the output files the area for the video is blank.
I have checked that the videos are not open anywhere else as I saw on a previous post this was the issue but the only place they are in use is in the project I am trying to publish.
Below are my settings and the error message
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Your screenshot indicates you are publishing to a folder on a network drive.
Have you:
Verified whether or not the video file exists at the published folder location? (It should ideally be sitting in the same folder as the SWF that calls it.)
Verified that the folder location is set up as a trusted location in your Flash Global Security settings?

CP 6 issue with inserted videos

Hi All,
I have an issue with inserted videos in CP6. They play in preview (F8) but not in published output (swf nor html).
This is what I do:
The videos created with CP6, Record new Demo
output cpvc
open cpvc in CP 6
publish see settings below:
Now I want to insert the captured and published demo into my training CP6 project
click 'Video' on menu bar -> Insert Video -> select 'Event Video' -> browse to the file on my computer -> select file (mp4) - click OK
Video gets loaded into CP6 project with default skin
Before save the changes of the project I change the settings on the property panel to:
Now I preview my project
Press F8
Preview is generated
video demo plays automatically as expected
This all even works well with multiple demo videos on one slide which can be selected by clicking different show me buttons (advanced actions created to show and hide according videos)
BUT now I publish my project and nothing works anymore, videos do not show on scene and cannot be selected with respective show me buttons
Publishing settings are:
At the end of the publishing dialogue I click to view output in web browser (IE9) and there starts the trouble:
IE shows up withfollowing dialogue:
I allow blocked content and select cancel in the following dialogue box:
And the training loads, everything works fine except the videos integrated to start automatically there is a blank space nothing.
Does anyone have an idea solution for me?
I am so puzzled and do not know hoe to proceed...
Thanks in advance for your reply!!!
Stephanie

Hi RodWard,
Thanks for your fast reply!!!
The video files are present in the same folder as the SWF publish location.
The drive letter is on my local PC with multiple partitions and not a network drive.
Flash global security settings are set for E:
To your last suggestion about file naming I did the following:
Generate new mp4s
Name them only with alphanumerics ie. DemoScroll
insert them into project
preview OK
publish and check if demos are in folder - yes they are
open html in IE9 - NOK!!!
Now frustration rose...
So I tried one thing that I had not yet tried - open html in FireFox and there it is OK :-)
I do not understand....BUT we need to be able to support IE!!!!
Do you think there are specific settings that need to be changed in IE to make it work?
I would highly appreciate a suggestion what to look for in IE...
Do you think it is related to IE9? ´
Since I have IE 9 and CP6 I also get the LMS messages and actriveX message when viewing projects in browser.
Looking forward to your help.
Thanks in advance Stephanie

Problems inserting video via ms word

Hi
I am trying to insert video into ms word for Acrobat Pro Extended as per the instructions below.
When I get to point three I get a message:
AdobePDFmakerX Library not registered.
Screen shot shown in the attached file.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Ken
Insert video into Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files
Acrobat Pro Extended adds a feature to Office that enables you to add video in FLV or SWF format to an Office document. Video that is created in other formats is converted to FLV format when it is added.
After adding a video to an Office document, you can convert the document to PDF and edit the video properties if needed.
In the Office document, select the position where you want the video to appear.
Do one of the following:
In Office 2003, click the Insert Video button in the PDFMaker toolbar.
In Office 2007, click the Embed Video button in the Acrobat ribbon.
Click the Browse button, and then locate the video you want to include.
Change the video settings as needed:
For video that is not in FLV or SWF format, set a poster image by moving the slider to the desired frame. Then click Set Poster Image From Current Frame.
To determine how the playback controls are displayed, select an option from the Skin menu.
To change the display size of the video, click Resize Video, and then change the width and height. Maintain the aspect ratio for best display.
Click OK to convert the video (if needed), and add it to the document.

In the future you might want to seach Google with the error message; Often shows one interesting results.
Any way hopefully this article will point you in the right direction. It seems removing the Office Acrobat Plugin and then re-installing solved the problem for at least one person. See this thread It it doesn't work specifically with your situation you may want to search the entire results page I got on Google (2 pages) as I don't have time to research them for you and I haven't experienced this specific problem myself.
Cheers.
